Hey ladies,

I need some motivation! I'm getting married in two months and it'd down to the wire. I'd like to lose somewhere between 5-10lbs between now and June 22nd. I'm down 4lbs already. I just need some extra help, tips, motivation, and support from fellow brides trying to look their best in their wedding dress! Pictures are forreverrr

    I'll be getting married in January - this will be my second marriage. And I can say 100% that pictures are indeed forever! I remember hating to look at my wedding photos because I looked like I was pregnant, when I wasn't. This time around, those pictures are definitely my motivation!

    Be careful! Because of alterations I was told that I need to keep my weight constant for the 4 weeks leading up to my wedding! No big Gains or loses or your dress won't fit!

    I've still got around 80lbs to nix. I refuse to be embarrassed to show my wedding pictures!

    I only have one month and hoping to lose 5 pounds myself. It can be done--I have just over 4 weeks..2 pounds will be water loss so really I'm looking at 32 days to lose 3 pounds...that's just about a 350 calorie deficit. That's my target! :)

    Late September/early October bride here! I would be over the moon if I could lose 40 lbs by then...but that's a pretty steep goal. I found that looking at my ring during a hard workout gives me instant motivation to push just a little harder! :wink: I'm getting my dress next month and I'm so nervous about that!

    So, what's your plan? What's your current weight? How tall are you? When is your last fitting?

    Two weeks. Two freakin weeks. And I lost bugger all until my dress went in, then promptly dropped 14 lbs through stress, resulting in my dressmaker yelling at me.

    But..... TWO WEEKS!!!

    I am 5'6" and 170 pounds. Already down 35 pounds and hoping to lose another 15 before the wedding. My end goal is 140, but I don't think thats realistic in 6 months! My last fitting is September 20th. I am doing turbofire and yoga daily. I eat around 1600 calories a day. after Turbofire i am thinking about doing insanity.

    November 23rd for me.....and this will be my second marriage - but this time to the RIGHT man! I am also hoping to drop at least 25lbs by then. If we are all consistent and determined, I believe we will all reach our goal by the time the love of our lives see us standing next to him all confident and beautiful!!!

    Good luck everyone - send me a friend request and we can continue to motivate each other!

    I'm getting married September 7th with my final dress fitting on July 17th. I am looking to lose about 10lbs between now and then. It's so hard being on this serious time crunch!

    I'm here! Next August, so I am giving myself until late this August to lose some inches. Plan is to lose as many inches as I can with P90x (starting Monday) and then work on maintaining all year.

    Getting married in September (second marriage here as well). I'm in maintenance (for the last 8 months) and have bought my dress in a size 8. :happy: I just need to make sure I don't GAIN. :embarassed: THAT would be embarrassing. I still log everything and work out at least 3 times per week (the mix that I found works the best for me in this phase), so I think I'll make it there without any issue.

    I'm getting married October 4/14, still a long ways to go for me. Like 35 pounds I need to lose and it seems to be very very slow (luckily I'll have time!) Anyone can feel free to add me but please just put a note that you're a bride or in need of motivation I always like to know what connection I'll have with someone :)

    Hey! Am also getting married soon, on 3rd of August. I've only a few pounds left to go. I've been losing weight by counting calories religiously, everything I put in my mouth I record. I've been exercising for half an hour most days. Either a brisk walk or a workout from an app I downloaded. I really see results. I'm not just looking at the scales now, I'm hopin to tone up too. Have a wedding dress fitting in a week. So excited
